The parliamentarian from the Republican faction Galust Sahakyan today
during a press conference presented his opinions on the Armenian and
Turkish protocols. According to him, the signing of the protocols
is a very important step. The international society assumed the role
of a guarantee and Turkey will have some problems with it if it does
not fulfill the arrangements.
The document is signed and has to be introduced before the
parliaments of both countries. In case of a change, in accordance with
international norms, the negotiating sides have the right to stop the
process of diplomatic relations. In other words, no other norms besides
those in the documents will not be accepted. If Turkey tries to add
new points, it will naturally be unacceptable for us and of course,
Turkey will not accept any change made by Armenia in the protocols.
If turkey imposes preconditions and ruins the ratification of the
protocols, it will appear under political hits because it will be
assessed as violation of arrangements which will of course have
consequences, said Galust Sahakyan.
According to Galust Sahakyan, "There was no resistance in the
Diaspora. The representatives of communities who took part in
the discussions shared the opinions which the Armenian government
presented. My impression is that only the ARF representatives who
partook in the discussions were against it. The rallies are the
shame of our nation because no citizen in the world will call their
president traitor. This is terrible we need to be purified. People
cannot be blamed we have always had this type of people. Is dangerous
also as Njdeh said, lees of our nation are also genius."
"We are going forward determinedly because our approaches will not
bring us to defeat. This is a mission, a period which we have to
overcome regardless the fact what the further solution of this document
are going to be. If we delay a little more our relations with Turkey,
we will lose our religious homeland, our cultural heritage. There
are no ways and we cannot wait for 100 years for Turkey to recognize
or not the genocide. In the end, Turkey will recognize the genocide
and our governmental commission will be engaged in eliminating the
consequences of genocide", said Galust Sahakyan.
